Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of air purification, and more particularly, to an electrostatic dust removal apparatus and an electrode unit thereof.


BACKGROUND

Electrostatic dust removal is one of methods for removing dust from one or more gases. The principle of the electrostatic dust removal method can be summarized as follows. When a gas and dust particles entrained in the gas pass through a high-voltage electrostatic field, the gas is electrically separated from the dust particles. The dust particles bond with negative ions and are charged negatively. Then the dust particles approach a surface of an anode and are deposited on the surface after discharging. That is, in a strong electric field, an air molecule is ionized into a positive ion and an electron, the electron may encounter the dust particle during approaching the anode, and thus the dust particle is charged negatively so as to be adsorbed onto the anode and then is collected on the anode.


In the related art, an electrostatic dust removal apparatus usually uses an electrode made of metal. Metal is not only costly, but also difficult to be machined and thus difficult to be processed into various shapes. In addition, corona discharge is liable to occur between a high-potential electrode and a low-potential electrode which are adjacent to each other, causing production of ozone and occurrence of an electric shock, which affect the use security. In order to solve the problem, in some electrostatic dust removal apparatuses, an additional insulator is provided between the adjacent electrodes, increasing the assembling complexity.

An electrostatic dust removal apparatus 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to the drawings.


As illustrated in FIG. 1 to FIG. 18, the electrostatic dust removal apparatus 1 according to the embodiments of the present disclosure includes a frame 10 and a plurality of electrode units 20.


The plurality of electrode units 20 are provided on the frame 10 and are spaced apart from each other. The plurality of electrode units 20 include at least one high-potential unit 21 and at least one low-potential unit 22, and the at least one high-potential unit 21 and the at least one low-potential unit 22 are arranged alternately. That is, one or more of the plurality of electrode units 20 may be formed as the high-potential unit(s) 21, and one or more of the plurality of electrode units 20 may be formed as the low-potential unit(s) 22. In other words, the electrode unit 20 adjacent to the high-potential unit 21 is used as the low-potential unit 22, and the electrode unit 20 adjacent to the low-potential unit 22 is used as the high-potential unit 21. For example, the plurality of electrode units 20 are arranged in an order of a high-potential unit 21, a low-potential unit 22, a high-potential unit 21, a low-potential unit 22 and so on. An air channel for removing dust is formed between the high-potential unit 21 and the low-potential unit 22 which are adjacent to each other. The air channel for removing dust extends along a length direction of the high-potential unit 21 and the low-potential unit 22 which are adjacent to each other.


Each of the plurality of electrode units 20 includes a conducting part 210 and an insulating part 220. The conducting part 210 is a conductive plastic part. The conducting part 210 includes an electrical field generator 211 and a conducting end 212. It shall be noted that, the electrical field generator 211 refers to a portion of the conducting part 210 that is configured to generate an electrical field, and the conducting end 212 refers to a portion of the conducting part 210 that is configured to realize an electrical connection. The insulating part 220 covers at least a portion of the electrical field generator 211. The conducting end 212 is exposed from the insulating part 220 for the electrical connection.


In the electrostatic dust removal apparatus 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure, the conducting part 210 of the electrode unit 20 is made from conductive plastic. Compared with metal in the related art, the conductive plastic is easier and more flexible to machine, and can form various structures adapted for different application environments and structural demands of the electrostatic dust removal apparatus 1, and further the cost of the conductive plastic is lower. In the related art, conductive ink is used to form an electrode. However, it requires an additional process to apply the conductive ink, and it is difficult to guarantee the comprehensiveness and uniformity of the application. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the use of the conductive plastic does not require any additional process, and the stability of the electrical field can be guaranteed.


At least a portion of the electrical field generator 211 of the conducting part 210 is covered by the insulating part 220, such that electrical field generators 211 adjacent to each other can be separated by at least one layer of insulating material. Therefore, on one hand, the corona discharge between adjacent electrode units 20 can be avoided, so as to reduce the generation of ozone and the risk of electric shock, greatly improving the use security. On the other hand, through the above covering, the conducting part 210 and the insulating part 220 can be formed as an integral part, simplifying the assembly. Further, each of the electrode units 20 can be formed as an individual component, facilitating replacement of an individual electrode unit 20 during the process of the manufacture and use. For example, during the process of manufacture, if it finds one or more defects in an individual electrode unit 20, the electrode unit 20 can be replaced independently without disposing of the plurality of electrode units 20 or the whole electrostatic dust removal apparatus, thereby indirectly improving the product yield and saving the manufacture cost. Further, during the process of use, an individual electrode unit 20 can be replaced, thereby making the repair and maintain during the process of use more convenient.


In addition, a long and narrow air channel for removing dust can be formed between adjacent electrode units 20, and can extend along the length direction of each of the adjacent electrode units 20. In this way, the wind resistance of the electrostatic dust removal apparatus 1 can be reduced so as to improve the dust removal efficiency.


In some specific embodiments of the present disclosure, the conductive plastic has a tensile strength in the range of 20 MPa to 28 MPa, an ultimate elongation of not less than 10%, a flexural strength in the range of 32 MPa to 40 MPa, a flexural modulus in the range of 3000 MPa to 3800 MPa, and a notched impact strength in the range of 100 J/m to 140 J/m. Preferably, the conductive plastic has a tensile strength of 24 MPa, a flexural strength of 36 MPa, a flexural modulus of 3400 MPa, and a notched impact strength of 120 J/m.


Further, the conductive plastic has a surface resistivity of 103 Ohm-cm, a specific weight in the range of 0.92 g/cm3 to 1.12 g/cm3, flammability in HB class, a shrinkage in the range of 0.4% to 0.8%, and a heat deformation temperature in the range of 95° C. to 115° C. Preferably, the conductive plastic has a specific weight of 1.02 g/cm3 and a heat deformation temperature of 105° C.


Further, the conductive plastic is subject to a drying process in which drying temperature is in the range of 70° C. to 90° C. and drying time is in the range of 2 hours to 4 hours. Preferably, the conductive plastic is subject to a drying process in which the drying temperature is 80° C.


Further, the conductive plastic is subject to an injection molding in which melt temperature is in the range of 180° C. to 240° C., front barrel temperature is in the range of 180° C. to 240° C., middle barrel temperature is in the range of 180° C. to 235° C., rear barrel temperature is in the range of 180° C.-230° C., mold temperature is in the range of 50° C. to 80° C. and injection pressure is medium pressure.


It can be obtained that, the conductive plastic has advantages such as good electrical conduction, good shape retention, light weight and high temperature resistance. Thus, in addition to the advantage of low manufacture cost, the electrode unit 20 made from the conductive plastic may have advantages such as lower risk of being damaged and high durability.

In some specific embodiments of the present disclosure, as illustrated in FIG. 1 to FIG. 9, the electrical field generators 211 adjacent to each other have surfaces facing each other, one of the surfaces is covered by the insulating part 220 and the other of the surfaces is exposed from the insulating part 220, forming a semi-covered structure. In detail, one side surface of an electrical field generator 211 in its thickness direction and two opposite curved surfaces of the electrical field generator 211 in its width direction are covered by the insulating part 220. In two opposite side surfaces of two electrical field generators 211 adjacent to each other, one side surface is covered by its corresponding insulating part 220 so as to guarantee that the two adjacent electrical field generators 211 are separated by an insulating layer. In this way, the use security of the electrostatic dust removal apparatus 1 can be guaranteed cost-efficiently.


In other specific embodiments of the present disclosure, as illustrated in FIG. 10 to FIG. 18, the insulating part 220 covers the whole electrical field generator 211, forming a fully covered structure.

In this way, creepage between the electrical field generators 211 adjacent to each other can further be avoided, and the electric shock can be prevented so as to greatly improve the security. Further, the air breakdown can be eliminated, therefore the problem of ozone generation can be solved from the origin and the concentration of the generated ozone is quite low.


In some specific embodiments of the present disclosure, the conducting part 210 and the insulating part 220 of each of the plurality of electrode units 20 are formed integrally by injection molding. In the electrostatic dust removal apparatus 1 in the related art, for the purpose of improving the security, an additional insulator may be provided between the electrodes adjacent to each other. The manufacture and assembly of the additional insulator are independent from those of any of the electrodes. Therefore, the additional insulator and the electrode cannot formed as an integrated whole, and problems such as uncontrollability of thickness, difficulty in mass production, instability in structure and poor uniformity in spacing between the electrodes may occur.


In the electrostatic dust removal apparatus 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure, the conducting part 210 and the insulating part 220 of the electrode unit 20 are formed integrally by injection molding, so that the conducting part 210 and the insulating part 220 are manufactured integrally to form an integrated whole. In this way, the assembly is simplified, and the structure is more stable. Further, a mold can be used, so as to guarantee a controllable uniformity of the thickness of the electrode units 20 and easiness for mass production. In addition, good uniformity in spacings among the electrodes can be guaranteed, thus the uniformity of the wind resistance in each position of the electrostatic dust removal apparatus 1 can be guaranteed so as to improve the dust removal uniformity.


In some specific embodiments of the present disclosure, as illustrated in FIG. 4 to FIG. 5 and FIG. 13 to FIG. 14, the plurality of electrode units 20 are arranged along the thickness direction of the plurality of electrode units 20, and two ends of each of the plurality of electrode units 20 are detachably mounted onto two opposite sides of the frame 10 respectively. In this way, the wind resistance can be lowered, the area for collecting dust can be increased, and the space usage of the electrostatic dust removal apparatus 1 can be reasonably set.
